This is what the families at the Kensington family shelter need right now:
- clothing for the fall and winter for boys and girls, from infant sizes to 5T and 6 to 16,
- coats for adults and children,
- warm/waterproof boots for adults and children,
- diapers, sizes 3-4-5-6,
- tampons and pads, and
- toiletries (full size or travel size, unopened).
Only donate clothing that's in very good to like-new condition, meaning that the clothes have no holes, stains,
missing buttons, etc.
The folks at the shelter don't need any housewares, baby gear, bedding, furniture, or toys at this time. The shelter has limited storage, so items that aren't on this list will
either not be accepted or will be discarded.
Drop off any of the items on the list before 7:00 p.m. any day between now and October
1st, to the attention of Uniquia Parker.
The Kensington family shelter is located at 385 McDonald Avenue, between Albemarle Road and Church Avenue, across the street from Foodtown, in Kensington, Brooklyn.
